Duke of York, Lichfield

Two bar pub that has very recently joined the real ale revolution. A fair selection on, I tried one called (I think) Sandstorm, which was a bit warm and tired. Place felt like a rather bare and devoid of character but hopefully will gain this over time. Barmaid seemed harassed despite not being overly busy. Was the weakest of the (non-Spoons) pubs on my crawl but I think it will gain in stature over time.

Comfortable, cosy 2-bar place with good-quality ale. Well worth missing a train for (I was tempted!).

Popped in yesterday. What a pub, quite different from other pubs in Lichfield. Large log fire, two roomed pub and has its own courtyard. More like barn than pub, you will see why... Had pint of very good Golden Thread (Salopian Ale) which is outstanding. I agree with Soupy, this pub has be in my 5 top Lichfield pubs. Only downside is its signage could do better..
